An exercise with class 6&7 to illustrate linear perspective.
A glass screen was placed at one end of the room. At the other end, the children lined up. One pupil then used a felt tip to draw on to the screen the figures as he saw them (looking through the glass, down the room) to illustrate how objects appear smaller the further away from us they are…
Here’s the process and the screen afterwards, with class 6&7 now shown in 2D. From this the class will move on to look at vanishing points and drawing cityscapes using linear perspective.
